1.3 Community and Credits

1.3.1 Community

The FHIR community meets inside the wider HL7 community and draws on its extensive human resources, institutional memory, previous standards and corporate support. HL7 itself owns FHIR and makes it freely available and the community relies on HL7 provided infrastructure.

The primary resources used by the FHIR community are the HL7 wiki , and the FHIR email list . In addition, the community holds regular face to face meetings as part of the HL7 Working Group meetings . The formal governance arrangements that manage FHIR development are documented on HL7's wiki

Note that each page of the FHIR specification contains a direct link to its matching wiki page where input from the wider community is managed. Community input is very welcome - please consider making comments.
